Sphere of influence glitch
Title: Superstar Mode – Sphere of Influence Not Recognizing WR Depth Chart or Reactivating Inactive Connections
Platform: (Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC — choose one)
Game Mode: Superstar Mode – Sphere of Influence
Edition: (Standard / Deluxe / MVP)
Purchase Type: Pre-order
Issue Description:
After starting a new Superstar season, Sphere of Influence is not recognizing roster changes to my top receivers.
- Both of my top WRs are showing as WR2 in the relationship screen.
- An inactive connection from last season has not been restored to active status despite the player being back in the starting lineup.
- The system does not appear to update influence targets after roster adjustments.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Progress into a second Superstar season.
- Have roster changes involving WR1/WR2 roles.
- Open Sphere of Influence and check player relationships — note that both receivers may show the same slot (WR2) and inactive connections remain inactive.
Expected Result:
- Sphere of Influence should reflect the correct WR1 and WR2.
- Returning/inactive players should reappear as active connections if they are starting again.
Actual Result:
- Both top WRs are listed as WR2.
- Returning receiver remains inactive in Sphere of Influence despite playing as starter.
Additional Notes:
This issue is similar to one already reported here: EA Forum Bug Report Link — posting to confirm it’s reproducible.
